Fair enough, sounds like you've got that front sorted.
Robert is on here, can't remember his username but he is clever. Tell him that you have not received the good that you ordered, he can either pay the postage back to him and then pay for it to be sandblasted and re-coated then postage back to you (or the amount of, €50 should cover it). Or the cost of a powdercoat here.

It seems the seattube bent open a little as the slot was cut in.
Nothing a vice and some careful application of force can't fix.
I'm bringing it to the LBS today for chasing/facing/putting headset in.
Actually the BB threads are chased very nicely but the flats aren't faced.
As to the money: Robert offered me 10€ in return, which is the cost of painting on his side. I answered that for that amount I couldn't even buy rattlecans to respray the frame myself, let alone get a new powdercoat.
Let's see where this goes.
